That option is another possibility. The internal damping rod length would be problematic but not insurmountable I suspect. Another project for the future......

The shorter legs are (for me) a deliberate choice. I fitted these in place of R1 forks, which are the same length. I prefer how the bike handles with the lowered front end. The standard setup feels like a big supermoto and IMO sits way too tall at the front to inspire confidence.

I too have lowered the front end (raised the forks in the triple clamps) and raised the rear on FZ1 (Ohlins shock set up a bit longer).

So this makes the bike turn quicker. If I shortened the forks another 1" it would be too steep.

I have resprung my stock forks and I am running 7.5 wt oil and it seems to be doing pretty good. Its not perfect but its pretty good.
